Oh Samui! Thailand to issue multiple-entry visas

Back to Bangkok

Thailand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs is launching a new six-month multiple-entry tourist visa (METV), which will allow you entry into the country as many times as you want within a six-month period.

The visa will be issued starting 13 November 2015. Do note that you can stay for just up to 60 days per visit. Yet it’s a better deal than the current six-month tourist visa, which only permits up to two entries, each not more than 60 days again.

The METV will cost THB5,000 (Rs9,100), more than twice of the Rs4,000 charged for the double-entry visa. But given the unlimited hops you can make, this is great bang for the baht, as Thailand always is.
